In just its second season, this beloved medical series—whose humanistic scripts were among the first to tackle such hot-button issues as abortion, substance abuse, and autism—became the first ABC program to top TV's ratings for the year. During its seven-season run, the show won multiple Emmys and Golden Globes for both its producers and two leads. Former father-who-knew-best Robert Young played the eponymous straight-talking but compassionate GP and mentor to aspiring neurologist and partner Steven Kiley (James Brolin, in his first major TV role). This two-disc collection contains ten of the most memorable episodes from its Emmy Award–winning debut season.
